Brussels - photographers
Mike Van Cleven began his professional photography career in 2002 and quickly matured to receive solid recognition in Belgium. His work - both cinematographic and moving - received tremendous recognition in his early years through multiple cover and editorial pieces in magazines throughout Europe and Russia.
Today, with an active presence in both Belgium and Los Angeles, he focuses on advertising, fashion and portrait photography while consistently working on editorial productions on both continents.
Late in 2009, Mike was selected to create the portraits for 'Chefs', a book promoting Belgium’s culinary and business finest that was introduced at the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai to a global audience.
Mike is also a frequent guest speaker at Hasselblad and Profoto events.
